Now the Max Planck Society pays the article processing charges centrally for the following new gold open access journals by the Institute of Physics:

Journal of Physics Communications

Environmental Research Letters

Max Planck (corresponding) authors can already publish open access at no costs to themselves in the New Journal of Physics.

The publication charges for three further new open access titles from the “Journal of Physics“ series on the topics “Energy“, “Materials“ and “Photonics“ will be funded by the library. However, there are no publication fees for the first 50 articles in these journals.
